History
Sipping Streams started as an idea from a semester high school tea elective class taught by the founder. From there, she taught classes at the university and offered private classes in people's homes. As people became more educated and intrigued about tea, a temporary shop was opened one summer at Pioneer Park where locals were excited to find a specialty tea company. So in 2009, the first permanent store front was opened. In 2015, Sipping Streams moved to a better location with better accessibility for customers and better space to grow their manufacturing side of the business. Now Sipping Streams manufactures tea blends, hot chocolate and honey for stores, cafes and restaurants throughout Alaska and the northwest. Sipping Streams still serves specialty tea foods and drinks, all made in house, and has won 11 international awards for their teas. They have been featured on several magazines and NPR.
